Johnny Weir

Whether witty or wise, controversial or charming, shocking or silly, sweet or sassy, provocative or profound, inspiring or infuriating--or any combination of those--Johnny Weir, the three-time U.S. Champion, two-time Olympian, and World medalist figure skater, almost always says something worth quoting whenever he commentates a skating competition, makes a TV appearance, gives an interview, holds a press conference, writes, tweets, or is caught on video. His quotes needed to be collected and shared; hence this blog.

Figure skating is an amazing ride. It takes you from feeling like the lowest scum in the pond, like two hours ago, and now I feel like a flower growing out of the pond.
--The New York Times, "Olympics; Weir's Title Fits Like Glove After Short Program" by Juliet Macur, January 13, 2006 (remarks after 2006 National's short program)
